Bobby Knight and LSU
quote:

I don't think Coach Knight actually physically harmed an LSU fan. I think the fan was drunk and fell into a trash can. I could be wrong but I don't think so.

You could not be MORE wrong. Louis Bonnecaze, a CPA and LSU fan, congratulated Knight on his victory at the Final Four in 1981.
Knight repied "I guess we weren't your damn tiger bait after all." To which Bonnecaze replied "Knight's an a-hole." Knight then forcefully pushed Bonnecaze backward. If there had not been a garbage can behind him, he may have struck his head or been injured. Knight didn't push him "on purpose" into the garbage can. It just happened to be in the area behind where Knight attacekd him.
And no, the LSU fan was not "drunk." Not sure where you conjured that up from.
Dale Brown did get one thing right - Knight is a "despicable human being."
